Bought today for £1.19 as 70% off original price. It is now in my unheated greenhouse for frost protection.

I've never grown Sylvia Shirley, but Polish Spirit is a fantastic plant. :)

We have this one on our allotment climbing up the shed and it was just a spindly thing when we bought it ( quite cheap too ) and it romped away all summer and was still flowering before Christmas !
Happy New Year Shirley x

Ladies, I am pleased this is popular with you!

Terra, thanks for adding this to Goypedia :o)

Janey, it IS a viticella and flowers from mid Summer to late Autumn. I have just bought a set of 3 obelisks, using my Christmas garden centre vouchers, so this has something to climb on already!

Rose, belated Happy New Year wishes to you and Rick. I haven't looked in on GoY recently as Mum has been unwell. More about that when I post a blog later ...

Amy, I went to a couple of garden centres that are part of 'The Garden Centre Group', one trades as a Wyevale. Hope that helps!
